^ http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/UBERON_0000326


Pancreatic juice is slightly alkaline and contains numerous enzymes and inactive enzyme precursors including alpha-amylase, chymotrypsinogen, lipase, procarboxypeptidase, proelastase, prophospholipase A2, ribonuclease, and trypsinogen. Its high concentration of bicarbonate ions helps to neutralize the acid from the stomach. [ http://amigo.geneontology.org/amigo/term/GO:0030157 ]
